HFE hemochromatosis in African Americans: Prevalence estimates of iron overload and iron overload-related disease.

The American journal of the medical sciences - 1 Jan 2023

Barton James C, Edwards Corwin Q, Acton Ronald T

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Little is known about the prevalence of HFE (homeostatic iron regulator) hemochromatosis in African Americans (AA). METHODS: We defined AA as self-identified AA, blacks, or non-Hispanic blacks. We defined hemochromatosis-associated HFE genotypes as p.C282Y/p.C282Y and p.C282Y/p.H63D. We compiled prevalences of these genotypes in AA using published population and cohort data and numbers of men and...
